Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) core including a plurality of thermometric arms and an R-2R ladder, the DAC core to convert a DAC code to an analog signal. The integrated circuit includes additional components as well. A differential non-linearity (DNL) calibration circuit outputs DNL coefficients based on the DAC code. A memory stores a value indicative of a product of a resistor temperature coefficient (TC) and a resistor self-heating coefficient (SHC). A current DAC (IDAC) couples to the R-2R ladder. A self-heating calibration circuit generates a self-heating trim code based on the value from the memory. An adder adds a value indicative of the DNL coefficients with the self-heating trim code to generate an IDAC trim code and provides the IDAC trim code to the IDAC to trim the R-2R ladder.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that securely authenticate a user of a web application. For example, the user may utilize a bot from within a first application, such as a chat application. The user may request the bot to access a second application (e.g., a social-networking application) that is remote from the first application. If the bot does not have authorization, the bot may redirect the user to a webpage for the second application, where the user may enter login credentials. Upon verification, the second application may provide an access token to a webpage associated with the bot. To authenticate the bot user, the bot webpage may generate and cache a nonce that is transmitted back to the first application, which then transmits it to the bot. The bot may then compare the received nonce with the cached nonce. If the nonces match, the user may be securely authenticated.

Abstract: Integrated circuits, or computer chips, typically include multiple hardware components (e.g. memory, processors, etc.) operating under a shared power (e.g. thermal) constraint that is sourced by one or more power sources for the chip. Typically, the hardware components can be individually configured to operate at certain states (e.g. to operate at a certain frequency by setting a clock speed for a clock dedicated to the hardware component). Thus, each hardware component can be configured to operate at an operating point that is determined to be optimal, usually in terms of achieving some desired goal for a specific application (e.g. frame rates for gaming, etc.). In the context of chip hardware that operates under a shared power/thermal constraint, a method, computer readable medium, and system are provided for determining the optimal operating point for the chip that takes into consideration both performance of the chip and power consumption by the chip.
